Giampietro Cutrino, the former 'Iena' of Italia 1, known by the name of Gip, is under investigation along with his parents for embezzlement, ideological forgery, circumvention of incapacity, and money laundering. These are the crimes that the Padua prosecutor's office accuses him, his father, Giovanni Cutrino, and his mother, Maria Teresa Donati. This is reported by Corriere della Sera. Gip's father, who for years has been the judicial administrator of an elderly woman residing in the Nazareth nursing home in downtown Padua, is alleged to have stolen money from the woman to buy a house with the complicity of his son.

What happened

The judicial administrator is that person who is appointed by the judge to take care of the assets of elderly people, who cannot move or manage their assets. Some time ago, civil judge Alina Rossato checked the elderly woman's expenses, noting that the 'justifications' for the expenses were increasingly scarce, while the withdrawals from the account were increasingly copious, up to the disappearance of 217,000 euros, many in cash. The administrator partly justified the withdrawals, explaining that the elderly woman, assisted in all her needs by the nursing home, loved to have 'parties' in the care facility.

The judge, suspicious, decided to appoint another administrator. And so it is that the new judicial custodian Gianluca Rigon, noticed that the expenses, from 2018 to today, were really many: the elderly lady, who had assets of over half a million euros, would have seen a good part of her money taken away. It should be noted that the elderly woman has a pension of 3,000 euros and that the Nazareth fee is 2,500 euros, therefore the assets should have increased, not decreased. The new administrator relied on lawyer Pietro Sartori, who filed a complaint with the prosecutor's office.

The missing money

It was the investigations of pm Luisa Rossi that brought to light two checks for 50,000 euros and one for 25,000 ended up, according to the accusation, in the pockets of Giovanni Cutrino, along with another 92,000 euros disappeared who knows where. In the investigation, the Iena Gip is accused of having pretended to provide his father with the money with which he bought a house in Padua. According to the prosecutor's office, that money was not Giampietro Cutrino's but it is the elderly woman's money illegally taken by his father Giovanni. Giampietro and his mother (lawyer Giuseppe Pavan) are charged with the only crime of money laundering, while the crime of embezzlement, circumvention and forgery, are charged to Giovanni Cutino. This morning, Tuesday, February 20, the case will end up before the gup Elena Lazzarin.

Gip, what is he doing today

Recently Gip moved to Switzerland and became an entrepreneur in the 'blockchain' sector which consists of a shared register for transactions, a complicated system that comes into play for the management of cryptocurrencies.
